exactly..


Manny will KTFO Casamayor in round 1.

Pacquiao and marquez are the two true frontrunners...

i put diaz over campbell because i think overall campbell hasnt really beat anyone...as far as im concerned the win over diaz was a fluke.

How can you rank Cambell fourth when he's holding 3 belts? if you were to rank them based on accomplishments at lightweight, Campbell and Diaz deserve to be at the top of the list. Diaz won 3 belts and recently defeated Katsidis and Campbell defeated Diaz.

juan d.
jmm
pac
casamayor

[Michelle21]

the correct ranking is

1 Campbell - deserves to be #1 he beat Juan Diaz
2 Juan Diaz - Onced ruled 135 made a come back and schooled Katsidis.
3 Pacman / JMM tie - Pac beat a paper champ, JMM beat a washed up fighter.

lol at all these people claiming Casamayor is a washed up fighter when they havent even seen how well he'll perform in his next bout. Marquez took a risk in facing Casamayor who had just come off a big win against Katsidis while Pac cherry picked the weakest champ in Diaz, who flat out sucks.

IMHO before ANY OF THE 130 CHAMPS CAME UP ...

1. campbell (beat diaz impresively to get his 3 belts)

2. casamayor (has linear title, and already beat nate on earlier in their careers, should be number 1 but has shady last 2 or 3 performance)

3. juan diaz (has claim to no.1 before he got beat by campbell)

4. david diaz (WBC Champ and koed sta cruz tormentor of casa, is in the mix of things)

anyway you want to see the rankings 1,2,3 could almost all be interchangeable with multiple factors JD cant be ranked higher than nate, casa could be ranked 1 but could also be ranked behind nate and jd...

when pac beat david..

1. campbell
2. casamayor
3. juan diaz
4. pacquiao (WBC Champ takes david's spot and is capable of challenging any of the top 3)


when JMM beat CASA..

1. campbell
2. Juan Manuel (beat casa and has linear title)
3. juan diaz
4. pacquiao

same scenario here anyway you want to see the rankings 1,2,3 could almost all be interchangeable and you could also contend that 4 already beat 1 or 2 depending on where you place JMM...

now we need a few more fights to get the undisputed title...

Katsidis has glass chin and is winning the fight.. not until a lucky punch that smashed him..
